Water the flowers in the morning or evening, not at noon. Just like people, suddenly pouring cold water on the pot on a hot day will cause the roots to be unable to adapt and cause root burn.

2. Water according to soil conditions : When watering, you must decide whether you need or control the amount of water based on the soil conditions, and what range it should be controlled within. If there is no shortage of water in the land, then don't water it, just spray it.
